'''Farley Mowat''' (b. 1921) is a Canadian author and naturalist who achieved fame with books such as ''Never Cry Wolf'' and ''Lost in The Barrens.'' He has sold more than 14 million books and his works have been translated into more than 50 languages.

His book ''Never Cry Wolf'' (herein NCW) details his [[arctic]] expedition. Aided by two Eskimos named Mike and Ootek, he discovered that [[wolves]] were not responsible for the decimation of the Keewatin [[caribou]] herd.

Human hunters shoot the big, healthy caribou, but wolves "eat the sick and the weak and the small caribou". (Page 85)

Rather than following the caribou in nomadic fashion, wolves remain within a marked-off territory. The female remains by the den with the [[cub]]s, while the male goes off at night to hunt. When caribou are not available, wolves can live on mice, ground squirrels and fish (such as jackfish or Northern pike).
